My grandparents still have their original SNES from 1990 and recently I noticed I have to play/fiddle with the catridge position to get some games to work. I'll try this the next time I'm over their house. Thanks

Dude, thank you! I didnt even think of taking the cartridge port apart. I cleaned it, sure, but only after taking it apart and cleaning it did it finally start to work. I just got this second hand and was starting to wonder if I got a dud lol. Thanks for the video!

I have a snes I'm working on I can't pass the screen of death. It looks like some of the housing that holds the connector pins in place broke so three pins are at an angle. Going to see if replacing the pin connector attachment helps

Thats one of the first batches of the snes with the un10 number and white and red mario sticker on the back! Had one in 2014, didn't last too long

I know my SNES from probably 1992 eventually would have the screen go black, even though the game would still go on. I believe I was able to send it back to Nintendo. Don't remember much about it though. Did a lot of early ones have an issue which would have the screen go black during gaming, even though the game would still go on. Sometimes I think it would switch back on.

Sometimes it’s not as easy. I’ve seen a few with a bad PPU or a CPU which causes it to have a black screen. Overall another console saved from the grave 😎

thanks for the video. just got one of mine working. Not so lucky with the second one. It has a slight red haze when powered on instead of the black screen issue. The red moves around the screen as it's reset. Anyone have an thoughts?

@power-vintage 8 месяцев назад

Do all your games cause this red haze? This reminds me of common issue with the NES where the game cart does not make good contact with the 72 pin connector.

@@power-vintage I have only tried two cartridges but after alternating back and forth sometimes it has the haze and sometimes it’s just the black screen.
